we’re alright on the full back fronts both sides but I do think we need to give Lazaar a lot more game time to cement his confidence/match fitness in order to reap any rewards from him otherwise he will never develop into a regular, rotation or not, we need to elevate him to first team degree before expecting any rewards.

It was nice to see Murphy grafting and looking like he really wants it. Alright he isn’t the most technically gifted but he puts himself about, and knocks the defenders around-doesn’tn give up.That goes a long way for the fans and he looks a shrewd buy to make sure Mitro has competition in the championship.

Yes small players can undoubtedly prosper in top class football, but small players can also have upper body strength, Maradonna for example, to brush off tackles. For me, Perez lacks this at the moment.

Slank Yeah he had a non descript game really. He was pretty close to where I was 1st half and he’s one who needs time to adjust to the pace of our game.. And there were one or two challenges there to be made where he pulled out clearly not fancying it. Also meandering back when in advanced positions and we had lost possession. He will have this sorted out on the training ground over the coming weeks I would think..

health update

My latest checkup was yesteday and after a battery of tests the results show the cancer remains stabilized and has not spread further.

Some background - I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in February 2017 after being in remission for six years. and I completed four months of intense chemotherapy in late July.

The cancer metastasized through the bones and one treatment available I am undergoing is hormone treatment.

There is no cure for Stage 4 cancer and I will continue to have exhaustive blood tests about every three months and CAT-scans and bone-scans when necessary.

I will do my best under the circumstances and I take this as another challenge - a big one.

Kacper Tylenda Website Designer

One of our avid readers Kacper Tylenda from Poland was the person who came in during April, 2017 and redesigned this web-site from top to bottom.

We think he did a fantastic job to modernize the site with the roll-out on Thursday May 18th surprisingly smooth.

I am so appreciative of his help.

Kacper is starting his own business in web-design so if you want a website built or know of people who want to redo their sites in any way – here’s his portfolio.

It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city. It’s a small boy clambering up stadium steps for the very first time, gripping his father’s hand, gawping at that hallowed stretch of turf beneath him and, without being able to do a thing about it, falling in love.
